1. Gangs Of Wasseypur
Starting her career with an unconventional and bold choice, we loved how Huma embraced her character Mohsina, a mafia's wife. Portraying Faizal's (Nawazuddin Siddiqui) wife, Huma outplayed her role to become one of the finest newcomers in Bollywood.Gangs Of Wasseypur went ahead to set high standards for Bollywood. Mohsina and Faizal's scene from the movie never fails to amaze and make us laugh at the same time.
2. Dedh Ishqiya
Playing the role of Munniya, Huma elevated the movie to another level. Sharing the screen with Madhuri Dixit, Naseeruddin Shah, and Arshad Warsi - the actress describes her role in the movie as 'deliciously complicated.'Now that's one way to put it. Though the movie performed moderately well, Huma's character is etched in every movie buff's mind.
3. Gangubai Kathiawadi
Though her role was only limited to a special dance number, she made sure her performance wasn't short-lived. Dancing on the song Shikayat, Huma beautifully elevated the movie.Here's wishing the beautiful and talented Huma Qureshi a very happy birthday.
